Hey, little child, how'd you learn to kill
Your parents are preachers
And they're preachin' 'bout peace and forgiveness
And hey, little bird, how'd you learn to fly
I am not your mother
I don't have any wings to get high
And hey, whole wide world, when did you learn to die
You're s'posed to last forever
We don't have any place but here
Well
It's never hard to see through the whites of your eyes
When you tell me exactly what you're thinkin'
It's never hard to see through the whites of your lies
It's never hard to see through the whites of your eyes
When you tell me exactly what you're thinkin'
It's never hard to see through the whites of your lies
Hey, chubby statesman, when'd you learn to lie
You grew up on the prairie
And they taught you 'bout truth and pride
And hey, Holy Ghost, when did you disappear
You're s'posed to be with us
You're s'posed to guide us from fear
And hey, little child, how'd you learn to kill
Your parents are preachers
And they're preachin' about peace and forgiveness
Well
It's never hard to see through the whites of your eyes
When you tell me exactly what you're thinkin'
It's never hard to see through the whites of your lies
It's never hard to see through the whites of your eyes
When you tell me exactly what you're thinkin'
It's never hard to see through the whites of your lies
Sometimes it's so hard
To just ask why
